Re: Army Forces Roll Into Gaza as Doomed HAMAS Celebrate After Hostage Execution Ramp
Israeli Ground Forces Roll Into Gaza to Attack Doomed Hamas

Israeli forces carried out a "relatively large" ground incursion overnight using tanks and targeting "terror infrastructure", as a bigger offensive loomed after more than two weeks of heavy air raids.
The raid came after the United Nations warned it is on the verge of running out of fuel in the Gaza Strip, forcing it to sharply curtail relief efforts in the territory, which has also been under a complete siege since Hamas' bloody rampage across southern Israel ignited the war earlier this month. During the overnight raid, the military said soldiers struck fighters, militant infrastructure and anti-tank missile launching positions. There were no immediate reports of casualties on either aide.
It comes after Benjamin Netanyahu said during a live TV address last night the IDF was "getting prepared" for a ground invasion, having previously vowed to destroy Hamas. The rising death tolls in Gaza are unprecedented in the decades-long Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Even greater loss of life could come if Israel launches an expected ground offensive aimed at crushing Hamas, which has ruled Gaza since 2007 and survived four previous wars with Israel.
The Gaza Health Ministry says more than 6,500 Palestinians have been killed in the war. That figure includes the disputed toll from an explosion at a hospital last week. The fighting has killed more than 1,400 people in Israel and Hamas also holds some 222 hostages in Gaza.
